ATG16L1 controls mammalian vacuolar proton ATPase Duque et al. report a hitherto unappreciated function of ATG16L1, best known for its roles in canonical autophagy and membrane atg8ylation, in directly reg

Happy to share the latest work from the Deretic Lab. We demonstrated that ATG16L1 regulates V-ATPase. Hope you all enjoy the data. hubs.la/Q03Hyqnz0

Liver-specific loss of Atg9a perturbs lipid metabolism and hepatocyte integrity The autophagy-related protein ATG9A is integral to cellular autophagy and lipid mobilization, yet its importance in mammalian physiology remains underexplored. Using a liver-specific conditional At...

Excited to share the first paper from the lab! 🥳 The ATG9 and lipid droplets saga continues! Open source!

Endosome–ER contact sites in phagophore formation Autophagy is a crucial ‘self-eating’ mechanism used by eukaryotic cells to degrade and recycle cytosolic materials. A recent study by Da Graça et al. reports that the dynamic mobilization of endosome–...

Check out the recent spotlight published in @cp-trendscellbio.bsky.social about our study on ER-endosome contacts in autophagy by @julianedagraca.bsky.social

ER-endosome contacts generate a local environment promoting phagophore formation Da Graça et al. identify ER-endosome contact sites as critical hubs for autophagosome biogenesis, where starvation triggers sequential endosome tethering to ER exit sites. This spatiotemporal coordina...

FINALLY OUT ! After a long journey (of PhD and publication process) my paper on the role of ER-endosomes contact sites in autophagosome formation is officially out 🥳🥳 www.cell.com/cell-reports...

Congratulations @julianedagraca.bsky.social ! Very well deserved 💪🍾🥳

WSTF nuclear autophagy regulates chronic but not acute inflammation - Nature During chronic but not acute inflammation, chromatin remodelling is influenced by nuclear autophagy through WSTF interaction with ATG8 in the nucleus, leading to WSTF nuclear export and its subsequent degradation.

Today, some members of Team @membramics-lab.bsky.social exchanged their lab coat 🥼 for a tutu to run 8k in Versailles for the “Princesses Race”. We had so much fun !

@membramics-lab.bsky.social lab, summer version 😗

Today was about celebrations! @julianedagraca.bsky.social spent the day in the lab, and we celebrated TWO accepted papers (...more news to come 😉...).

@membramics-lab.bsky.social is a lovely team, for sure.

huge congrats to our beloved @carlaalemany.bsky.social & @julianedagraca.bsky.social 🥲

Join us this Wednesday as Dr. Rabia Khawaja presents her recent work, "Sex-specific and cell-type-specific changes in chaperone-mediated autophagy across tissues during aging", published in Nature Aging in February 2025!

Changes to the 2026 and 2027 Work Programmes With the launch of the competitions for grants under ERC Work Programme 2026 in July of this year, several changes to the submission of applications and the evaluation of proposals will apply. The mai...

Important changes on @erc.europa.eu grants‼️Grant structure & most importantly eligibility timeframes (10 years for starting, 15 years for consolidator post PhD-but you can have them only once) changes: erc.europa.eu/news-events/...

Happy to share this event with you all! Free registration!

Had a great time speaking
@pintofscience.fr last night!
It was such a pleasure to share my work and connect with so many curious minds over a drink🍻
Big thanks to the organizers and everyone who came out — #science really is better when it's shared at the pub!

Quiescent cell re-entry is limited by macroautophagy-induced lysosomal damage Lysosomes are damaged in quiescent cells, and UPR regulators, IRE-1/XBP-1, promote lysosome repair for cell-cycle re-entry. Lysosome damage in quiescent cells is caused in part by macroautophagy and i...
